I read an article online about an experiment conducted by Soulieres, a psychologist. Basically, he conducted a test that tested the subject's hypothesis-testing, problem solving and learning skills. This test is called Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices. The subject had to complete the pattern which regarded shapes and colors.
The results showed that the people with autism responded faster than those who did not have autism. Soulieres, the person who conducted the experiment, believed that the children with autism pays more attention to physical details.
"We showed that people with autism can achieve much more than they're given the chance to," she said. "We have to work with them instead of simplifying everything for them."
This article, I believe, has shown how people with autism are not those to be looked down but instead looked to those who can contribute to society in ways we can't. Then I remember Huan and remind myself how he sees things that no one else does.
